Châteauneuf-du-Pape Célestins Bonneau 1989 presents a study in structure and restraint. This vintage exhibits a darker fruit profile, with notes of blackberry and plum intertwined with herbal undertones, showcasing the region’s renowned terroir. The tannins are pronounced, reflecting the wine`s formidable lineage and potential for long-term ageing. Though approachable, this cuvée may benefit from further cellaring to reveal its full complexity. Domaine Bonneau, led by the respected winemaker Marcel Bonneau, is celebrated for its meticulous vineyard practices and limited production. Anticipated maturity. 2015-2035.

Inching closer and closer to the celestial 1990, is the 1989. This cuvee was fabulous when tasted in Bonneau’s cellars, but it closed down after bottling. Possibly even more powerful and tannic than the 1990, as well as more backward, the 1989 looks to be a great classic. It is a Reserve des Celestins to forget for another 3-8 years. It possesses all the characteristics of the 1990, but everything is packed into a more linear personality. Amazing stuff! Anticipated maturity. 2009-2035. - Robert M. Parker, Jr.
